I found the Nash pretty quickly on Tuesday but havent had time to look for the others. Definitely a lot harder than last time.

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      My crystal ball says that when they replaced the pads, they didn't replace all of the brake hardware (could be a missing shim, pin, spring, etc).  Finding a low dust pad should be very easy. Have a google for things like, low dust / soft pad compound / easy on rotors. Your dust primarily comes from the rotors getting eaten up by the pads.

      R32gtr sputtering and stalling

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      OBD1 is a catch-all term for pre-OBD2 which could have basically any connector design and protocol. I really don't understand this attitude against using data logging for issues that can be multi-causal and subtle. A no-start situation or something like that sure the scan tool does nothing but if it runs like shit it can often be a sensor issue. When a friend of mine reliably had issues with his N54 not able to stay running eventually I narrowed down the issue to a faulty fuel pressure sensor. Only way I could do that was a scan tool to look at the fuel rail pressure and see shadow codes for fuel pressure. Then check against a pressure gauge. Is reflexively firing up the data logger probably a bad habit? I guess, it can encourage people to not listen/observe but on these old OBD1 cars just taking a log really doesn't do anything by itself. You still have to synthesize everything you know and think about what it all means.

      https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1999-nissan-skyline-gt-r-v-spec-bnr34-manual-4wd/OAG-AD-24005316   i reckon some former Skyline owners are wishing they held out a little longer before selling up?

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Yeah saw that video on YouTube. But he got a R grade (repaired) high mileage model and proudly advertised the fact it was super cheap and no doubt with issues. I wouldn't be going the cheap and nasty route.
